The accompanying drawing is a schematic view of an organic light-emitting device according to an embodiment.

In the accompanying drawing, a substrate may be additionally disposed under a first electrode 110 or above a second electrode 190. The substrate may be a glass substrate or a transparent plastic substrate, each having excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, ease of handling, and water-resistance.

The first electrode 110 may be formed by depositing or sputtering a material for forming the first electrode on the substrate. When the first electrode 110 is an anode, the material for the first electrode may be selected from materials having a high work function to allow holes to be easily injected (e.g., injected into the organic layer). The first electrode 110 may be a reflective electrode or a transmissive electrode. The material for the first electrode may be a transparent and highly conductive material, and examples of such a material include indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), tin oxide (SnO₂), and zinc oxide (ZnO). When the first electrode 110 is a semi-transmissive electrode or a reflective electrode, a material for forming the first electrode may include at least one selected from magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al—Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg-In), and magnesium-silver (Mg—Ag).

The first electrode 110 may have a single-layer structure, or a multi-layer structure including two or more layers. For example, the first electrode 110 may have a three-layered structure including ITO/Ag/ITO, but the structure of the first electrode 110 is not limited thereto.

An organic layer 150 including an emission layer is disposed on the first electrode 110. The organic layer 150 may further include a hole transport region disposed between the first electrode and the emission layer, and an electron transport region disposed between the emission layer and the second electrode 190.

The hole transport region may include at least one selected from a hole injection layer (HIL), a hole transport layer (HTL), a buffer layer, and an electron blocking layer (EBL), and the electron transport region may include at least one selected from a hole blocking layer (HBL), an electron transport layer (ETL), and an electron injection layer (EIL), but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

The hole transport region may have a single-layered structure including a single (or sole) material, a single-layered structure including a plurality of different materials, or a multi-layered structure having a plurality of layers including a plurality of different materials.

For example, the hole transport region may have a single-layered structure including a plurality of different materials, or a structure of hole injection layer/hole transport layer, a structure of hole injection layer/hole transport layer/buffer layer, a structure of hole injection layer/buffer layer, a structure of hole transport layer/buffer layer, or a structure of hole injection layer/hole transport layer/electron blocking layer, wherein layers of each structure are sequentially stacked from the first electrode 110 in the stated order, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

When the hole transport region includes a hole injection layer, the hole injection layer may be formed on the first electrode 110 by using various suitable methods, such as vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, a Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method, ink-jet printing, laser-printing, or laser-induced thermal imaging (LITI).

When the hole injection layer is formed by vacuum deposition, for example, the vacuum deposition may be performed at a deposition temperature of about 100° C. to about 500° C., at a vacuum degree of about 10⁻⁸ torr to about 10⁻³ torr, and at a deposition rate of about 0.01 Å/sec to about 100 Å/sec in consideration of the composition of a compound for the hole injection layer to be deposited, and the structure of the hole injection layer to be formed.

When the hole injection layer is formed by spin coating, the spin coating may be performed at a coating rate of about 2,000 rpm to about 5,000 rpm, and at a temperature of about 80° C. to about 200° C. in consideration of the composition of a compound for the hole injection layer to be deposited, and the structure of the hole injection layer to be formed.

When the hole transport region includes a hole transport layer, the hole transport layer may be formed on the first electrode 110 or on the hole injection layer by using various suitable methods, such as vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, a Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method, ink-jet printing, laser-printing, or laser-induced thermal imaging (LITI). When the hole transport layer is formed by vacuum deposition and/or spin coating, the deposition and/or coating conditions for the hole transport layer may be determined by referring to the deposition and coating conditions described above with respect to the hole injection layer.

The hole transport region may include at least one selected from m-MTDATA, TDATA, 2-TNATA, NPB, 6-NPB, TPD, Spiro-TPD, Spiro-NPB, α-NPB, TAPC, HMTPD, TCTA(4,4′,4″-tris(N-carbazolyl)triphenylamine(4,4′,4″-tris(N-carbazolyl)triphenylamine)), Pani/DBSA (polyaniline/dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid:polyaniline/dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid), PEDOT/PSS(poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(4-styrenesulfonate):poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(4-styrenesulfonate)), Pani/CSA (polyaniline/camphor sulfonic acid:polyaniline/camphorsulfonic acid), PANI/PSS (polyaniline)/poly(4-styrenesulfonate):polyaniline)/poly(4-styrene sulfonate)), a compound represented by Formula 201 and a compound represented by Formula 202:

The compound represented by Formula 201 and the compound represented by Formula 202 may include any of Compounds HT1 to HT20 below, but the compounds are not limited thereto.

A thickness of the hole transport region may be in a range of about 100 Å to about 10,000 Å, for example, about 100 Å to about 1,000 Å. When the hole transport region includes a hole injection layer and a hole transport layer, the thickness of the hole injection layer may be in a range of about 100 Å to about 10,000 Å, for example, about 100 Å to about 1,000 Å, and the thickness of the hole transport layer may be in a range of about 50 Å to about 2,000 Å, for example, about 100 Å to about 1,500 Å. When the thicknesses of the hole transport region, the hole injection layer, and the hole transport layer are within these ranges, satisfactory hole transporting characteristics may be obtained without a substantial increase in driving voltage.

The hole transport region may further include, in addition to these materials, a charge-generation material for the improvement of conductive properties. The charge-generation material may be homogeneously or unhomogeneously (inhomogeneously) dispersed in the hole transport region.

The charge-generation material may be, for example, a p-dopant. The p-dopant may be one selected from a quinone derivative, a metal oxide, and a cyano group-containing compound, but the p-dopant is not limited thereto. For example, non-limiting examples of the p-dopant include a quinone derivative, such as tetracyanoquinonedimethane (TCNQ) or 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-tetracyano-1,4-benzoquinonedimethane (F4-TCNQ); a metal oxide, such as a tungsten oxide or a molybdenum oxide, and Compound HT-D1 illustrated below, but the p-dopant is not limited thereto.

The hole transport region may further include, in addition to the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer, at least one selected from a buffer layer and an electron blocking layer. Since the buffer layer may compensate for an optical resonance distance according to a wavelength of light emitted from the emission layer, light-emission efficiency of a formed organic light-emitting device may be improved by including the buffer layer in the hole transport region. A material included in the buffer layer may be the same as materials that are included in the hole transport region may be used. The electron blocking layer prevents or reduces injection of electrons from the electron transport region (e.g., injection of electrons from the electron transport region to the hole injection layer and/or the hole transport layer).

An emission layer is formed on the first electrode 110 or the hole transport region by using various suitable methods, such as vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, a LB method, ink-jet printing, laser-printing, or LITI. When the emission layer is formed by vacuum deposition and/or spin coating, the deposition and/or coating conditions for the emission layer may be determined by referring to the deposition and coating conditions described above with respect to the hole injection layer.

When the organic light-emitting device 10 is a full color organic light-emitting device, the emission layer may be patterned into a red emission layer, a green emission layer, or a blue emission layer, according to a sub pixel. In some embodiments, the emission layer may include a red emission layer, a green emission layer, or a blue emission layer, and a single emission layer is included for each sub pixel.

The emission layer may include a host and a dopant.

The host may include a first material represented by Formula 1 and a second material represented by Formula 2 below:

A thickness of the emission layer may be in a range of about 100 Å to about 1000 Å, for example, about 200 Å to about 600 Å. When the thickness of the emission layer is within this range, excellent light-emission characteristics may be obtained without a substantial increase in driving voltage.

The electron transport region may include at least one selected from a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer (ETL) and an electron injection layer, but the electron transport region is not limited thereto.

For example, the electron transport region may have a structure of electron transport layer/electron injection layer or a structure of hole blocking layer/electron transport layer/electron injection layer, wherein layers of each structure are sequentially stacked from the emission layer in the stated order, but the electron transport region is not limited thereto.

The electron transport region may include a buffer layer. When an emission layer includes a fluorescent dopant, the buffer layer may capture excitons in the emission layer such that efficiency of an organic light-emitting device is improved.

When the electron transport region includes a buffer layer, the buffer layer may be formed on the emission layer by using various suitable methods, such as vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, a LB method, ink-jet printing, laser-printing, or LITI. When the buffer layer is formed by vacuum deposition and/or spin coating, the deposition and/or coating conditions for the buffer layer may be determined by referring to the deposition and coating conditions described above with respect to the hole injection layer.

The buffer layer may include, for example, any one of Compounds E1 to E8 below.

A triplet energy of the buffer layer may be, for example, more than 2.2 eV, and the buffer layer may include a compound having an electron transportability (e.g., an electron transport material).

A thickness of the buffer layer may be in a range of about 20 Å to about 1000 Å, for example, about 30 Å to about 300 Å. When the thickness of the buffer layer is within this range, excitons may be effectively captured in the emission layer and an organic light-emitting device with excellent efficiency may be obtained.

The electron transport region may include an electron transport layer. The electron transport layer may be formed on the emission layer or the buffer layer by using various suitable methods, such as vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, a LB method, ink-jet printing, laser-printing, or LITI. When the electron transport layer is formed by vacuum deposition and/or spin coating, the deposition and/or coating conditions for the electron transport layer may be determined by referring to the deposition and coating conditions described above with respect to the hole injection layer.
